whereas many develop a psychological phobia towards the subject. Many students drop mathematics after grade X as

Education program at Cluster Innovation Centre, University of Delhi. Students of semester I. They introduced an on-line
community radio series, titled, “Popularizing mathematics among masses” through the most humble medium of
